"Well... I signed a contract with "Lianxin Pharmaceutical" today..."
Before he finished speaking, Chen Qingyang had already reacted. Most of his drunkenness dissipated in an instant, and he sat up straight, "How do you know? Did your mother tell you?"
Chen Mochuan felt a little funny when he saw his father's appearance, "You have looked worried in the past few days, and you were muttering about "work" and "salary" in the entrance hall just now. I guessed it."
"Hey... drinking makes things worse..." Chen Qingyang put his hand on his forehead, "Forget it, it's okay, it's over... It's not bad to change to a new working environment. At least Lianxin Pharmaceutical promised me that I only need to concentrate on the research and development of new drugs. I definitely don't have to travel, and my salary has been improved a lot."
Having said that, Chen Mochuan can still hear a hint of sourness in his father's words. He obviously still misses his previous company, but he doesn't intend to go into details about why his father left his job. At least it seems that the result is pretty good now.
After pouring a glass of warm water for his father to relieve his discomfort after being drunk, Chen Mochuan was about to go back to the house when the faces of Sullen Man and Lu Ren suddenly appeared in his mind.
I thought that they might be related to the mysterious anti-drug organization, and they also appeared near the office of Lianxin Pharmaceutical. Both of them are related to drugs. Is there any connection between them...
Chen Mochuan couldn't help but feel nervous, and subconsciously reminded, "Dad, you must not do any illegal drugs..."
Chen Qingyang, who was drinking water, immediately put down his cup and his face turned serious, "Your grandfather was killed by something like that. How could I touch it?"
Long before Chen Mochuan was born, his grandparents had passed away, but he knew that his grandfather was engaged in pharmaceuticals in the early years and opened a pharmaceutical factory, which was very prosperous.
My father took the pharmaceutical-related major in college and was influenced by it, preparing to inherit the family business in the future.
However, the pharmaceutical company later went bankrupt and owed a lot of debt. Grandpa had to give away most of the family's assets to pay it off.
As for the reason for the bankruptcy of the pharmaceutical factory, my parents accidentally revealed in a chat that my grandfather took the lead in developing a new type of martial arts supplement. However, it took too long and the investment was too large, and it never achieved breakthrough results. The drug was still unable to be launched to make a profit, resulting in a complete breakdown of the capital chain.
In the end, only some relevant pharmaceutical information was left in the entire pharmaceutical factory, which was kept by my father.
After the pharmaceutical company went bankrupt, my grandfather became depressed. In addition, he accidentally took some illegal drugs, which made his health very poor. He could not afford to fall ill, and finally died young.
Therefore, my father Chen Qingyang always believed that illegal drugs indirectly killed his grandfather, and he hated all illegal drugs.
Seeing that his father was obviously a little excited, Chen Mochuan knew that what he had just said was not appropriate, and he quickly made up for it. "I read online news a few days ago that a small pharmaceutical company was not very effective, and it was found out for going off the rails, so I was a little worried."
Chen Qingyang also knew that his son was concerned about him, so he softened his tone and said, "Lianxin Pharmaceutical's profits are very good. The management cannot be short-sighted and follow such evil ways. Moreover, my work direction has been set, which is to develop a new martial arts supplement similar to Blood Qi Supplement. It has nothing to do with banned drugs, and it will definitely not have anything to do with it."
After hearing his father's explanation, Chen Mochuan was completely relieved, knowing that he was indeed over-worrying.
After chatting with my father for a few more words, my mother, who had fallen asleep before, was awakened by the sound of the two talking. She came to the living room and drove them both back to the bedroom to rest.
Another week has passed in the blink of an eye.
Nothing special happened this week. Chen Mochuan spent the time practicing peacefully. Because it was very close to the New Year, he stopped going to school so that the two teachers Han Zhen and Lin Hong could spend time with their families. They only lived a two-point and one-line cultivation life like Mingxin Martial Arts Hall and at home, but they did not feel boring at all.
However, Hong Yucheng has not shown up since the first day they met. According to Feng Shi, he went to retreat to consolidate his newly achieved cultivation realm.
Therefore, the last few days have been spent sparring with Feng Shi and playing with Hard-Body Training. Just as he expected, Tiger Roar Body-Forging Technique's improvement in practice after that was really not comparable to that on the first day. He could improve his progress by about 5% every two days, but the speed of progress still made Feng Shi feel incredible.
He told him that the Proficiency state that he had worked hard for a year to reach, maybe Chen Mochuan could be achieved in less than two months.
And Tiger Roar Body-Forging Technique is also worthy of the name of the top among Hard-Body Training. Chen Mochuan can already feel that the body's ability to resist blows has been significantly enhanced after practicing to the level of Initiation (25%).
More than two days ago, Gushing Spring Acupoint finally took shape under his continuous maintenance, which brought a considerable increase in the explosive power and stability of his lower body.
If other people knew that it only took him five or six days to complete the development of a Acupoint from prototype to complete condensation, they would probably be shocked.
That night, Chen Mochuan opened up the prototype of the second Acupoint--Life Gate hole.
The master of Life Gate is Wen Yang, who can strengthen the kidney function. If he hadn't practiced Hard Crotch Technique in Tiger Roar Body-Forging Technique for a period of time, the kidneys had been significantly tempered and strengthened. This position of Acupoint, which is somewhat special, might not have been successfully developed in just one night.
However, after the Life Gate point took shape, it formed a wonderful and mutually reinforcing benign gain between his Tiger Roar Body-Forging Technique and his Hard Crotch Technique practice, which was an unexpected surprise.
Today is New Year's Eve. Chen Mochuan took a rare half-day break in response to his parents' strong request to "balance work with rest." He did not go to Mingxin to practice spiritual practice. Instead, he and his parents posted couplets at home, hung lanterns, glued window grilles, and made dumplings together.
In the evening, Ye Min and Chen Qingyang carefully prepared many sumptuous meals, and the crackling of firecrackers could be heard outside the window from time to time, intertwining into a festive New Year's Eve movement.
The family gathered around the dining table, with relaxed and cheerful smiles on their faces. Ye Min smiled and poured juice for all three of them.
Chen Qingyang was the first to raise the glass, with emotion and hope in his eyes. "This past year has not been easy for our family, but we have finally been able to get better and better after all the hardships! I have had some setbacks at work recently, which makes you worry, but at Lianxin Pharmaceutical, I will definitely make achievements..."
Maybe he remembered something, but as he spoke, he was speechless for a while.
Chen Mochuan saw this and quickly raised his glass and said, "I wish my parents good health and success in work in the new year!"
Ye Min smiled and raised his glass, "I also wish my son's martial arts skills will improve steadily and he will be admitted to his ideal university!"
At this time, Chen Qingyang calmed down and said, "Okay, okay! I wish my son will improve his martial arts and have a bright future! The most important thing is that our family will be safe and healthy! Come on, cheers!"
"Cheers!"
The three cups touched together gently, making a crisp and sweet sound.
Amid the laughter and laughter, the family tasted delicious food, chatted about homely things, and were full of warm expectations for the upcoming New Year. This simple and sincere reunion was the most precious New Year flavor of this night.
